REINMUTH WRITES ARTICLE
Recent Literary Achievement

of Philology.
One of the leading articles in
The American Journal of Philology
f0r the last quarter ui
nag jut appeared, was written by
prof O. W. Reinmuth of the
nmirlmpnt. It is a study
of the literary treatment of con
temporaneous events in Roman
epic with particular emphasis upon
the Aeneid of Vergil.
"In obtaining international mind
ness, the first requisite is to be
come readers of documents. In in
terpreting the voluminous news for
the day, it must be remembered
that no document is valid today ex
cept for the document of human
relations. Opinions must be formed
not by facing the people alone but
by appreciating their background
of tradition and prejudice. And as
you re-sd the documents, learn as
you read to realize what doesn t
work and what might, if tried."
As a way of illustrating his
ideal of learning to read docu
ments, and as a means of describ
ing "Europe Unvisited," Mr. Har
ris introduced with expressive
characterizations many of the
noted thinkers and political lead
ers of Europe.
Dr. Maude Royden, leader of a

Of Faculty to Reduce
Utilities Cost.
Orders for economy in the
use of heat, water, and electri
city on the eniii pi of the
University of Nebraska, were
issued Tuesday by L. F. Seaton,
operating superintendent. Because
of the severe budget cuts, and the
increased price of steam coal, Mr.
Seaton appealed to all departments
of the school to help in the crisis.
"Unless a proportionate reduc
tion in the quantity of steam used
can be made, the fund for heating
will have to be increased at the
expense of other maintenance and
salary items," said Mr. Seaton
Tuesday. "We are now facing the
prospect of having to pay about
50 percent more at the mines for
steam coal than last year. It will
require the utmost co-operation
from every member of the faculty
to effect the necessary saving in
the amount of steam consumed
during the coming heating season,
which will enable us to balance the
increased coal costs with our re
duced budget.

First Meeting of Newly
Organized Group Is
Announced.
The first meeting of the newly
organized alumni interfraternity
council will be held next Monday,
T. J. Thompson, dean of student
affairs announced yesterday after
noon. Organization of this group
was authorized at the last meeting
of the active Interfraternity coun
cil three weeks ago.
Plans for the formation of the
alumni group were first brought
up at a meeting of the council last
year along with other propositions
for reorganizing the council with
the policy of eliminating all politics
from the council and making it a
more powerful legislative body in
view. A committee was appointed
to work during the summer and
present suggestions at the first
meeting this fall.
The committee reported this fall
with two recommendations for re
organization of the council. One of
these plans provided for the crea
tion of an alumni council composed
of an alumnus of each fraternity
represented on the campus. The
council accepted this recommenda
dation at its last meeting.

My the decisive margin of almost two votes to one in the

candidates defeated their Green Toga opponents in the fall
elections yesterday. The final count showed that Burton Marvin

CARRY JACK-0-LANTERNS
Announcing that all freshman
girls attending the annual Farm
ers' Formal party at Ag activities
building Friday night would be re
quired to wear a necklace made of
kernels of corn, and that all fresh
man boys would be required to
bring jack-o-lanterns, the Farm
ers' Formal committee sought yes
terday to instill new fun and en
thusiasm into the coming party.
"We are anxious for the fresh
men to attend the formal," said
committee chairman Philip Hen
derson, "but we are going to insist
that to get into the party all girls
must wear necklaces made of ker
nels of corn and that all the boys
must bring jack-o-lanterns." Hen
derson said further that if the in
navation in this year's party
proved successful, it would prob
ably become a permanent part of
the Farmers' Formal tradition.
Two Day Sales.
With two days of the ticket sales
completed, tickets chairman How
ard White said late yesterday that
sales so far had far outrun those
of last year. Every member of the
committee is hard at work on the
campus, and more than usual in
terest is being shown by the stu
dents, according to White. It was
also pointed out that one member
of each couple attending the an
nual Ag party Friday night should
be an Ag coliege student.
Favors Available.
Contrary to former announce
ment, Henderson said late yester
day that favors and invitations for
the party will be available begin
ning Wednesday morning at the
dean's office in Ag hall. He pointed
out that these invitations add to
the fun of the party, and suggested
that every student planning to at
tend present his ticket at the
dean's office to get his favors.
Laying further requirements on
the camDUS underlings, the Farm
ers" Formal committee announced
yesterday that every freshman on
the campus is to report at the ac
tivities building Friday afternoon
to help with decorations for the
party. Henderson said the list of
freshmen would be checked to be
sure they were all present.
